Internet Providers in Winnipeg, MB

Bell is the largest telecommunication company in Canada and has the largest fibre network having invested $14 billion in network expansion between 2020-2022. Bell’s fibre network offering in Winnipeg includes fibre-to-the-home (FTTH) and fibre-to-the-node (FTTN) technologies.

Our recommended speed offered by Bell is the Gigabit Fibe 1.5 which has a download speed of 1500 Mbps and an upload speed of 940 Mbps, using FTTH technology. It costs $129 per month or $110 per month for a 2-year plan.

Their fastest plan is the Gigabit Fibe 3.0 which costs $139 per month or $120 per month for a 2-year plan. This plan has an FTTH connection which enables symmetrical download and upload speed of 3000 Mbps.

Bell includes a free WiFi modem in the plan, and you need to pay a $60 installation fee to get your internet. For customer support, you can have a live chat or call them.

One downside of Bell is that you have to sign a 2-year contract to access cheaper prices on their plans. Also, their fastest plan is not available in all households due to the limited reach of FTTH services.

Rogers uses its fibre network to deliver reliable and high-speed internet to its clients in Winnipeg. Since acquiring Shaw in 2023, Rogers has been able to expand its footprint, offer budget-friendly internet plans, and bring more competition. In Winnipeg, Rogers offers FTTN plans which connect to the home via coaxial cables (also known as a hybrid fibre-coaxial network).

Our recommended plan by Rogers is the Ignite Internet Gigabit which costs $130 per month or $110 per month for a 2-year plan. This plan has a download speed of 1000 Mbps and an upload speed of 150 Mbps.  

Their cheapest plan is the Ignite Internet 75 which costs $100 per month or $70 per month for a 2-year plan. It has a download speed of 75 Mbps and an upload speed of 75 Mbps.

If you want to increase the coverage of your home WiFi, you can rent the Ignite WiFi pod (Gen 2) for $10 per month. You can chat online or message on iMessage or WhatsApp if you need customer assistance.

One drawback about Rogers is you have to sign a 2-year contract to get the cheaper prices on their plans.

TekSavvy provides internet connection to residents in Winnipeg using cable networks and DSL technology. Although TekSavvy has invested in its own fibre network which continues to expand, it is only available in parts of Ontario so cannot be accessed in Winnipeg.

Their fastest plan is the 1 Gbps Unlimited which costs $74.95 per month. This plan has a download speed of 1000 Mbps and an upload speed of 100 Mbps.

One downside of Teksavvy is that they only provide DSL and cable network connections in Winnipeg due to the limited availability of their Ontario-based fiber internet network.
